And I Thought Fingernail Clipping Was Bad...

Experienced a new low on the ferry over the weekend. Was sitting in my seat minding my own business when I hear someone behind me fart. Turn around to find a Chinese woman wafting her crotch area with a fan...in my direction. I guess she thought it was a good idea to fan her fart.

And her husband sat right next to her the entire time. That's love and devotion - or a seriously sick fetish.

Yeah, we wanted to hire a new helper (Chinese) the other weekend. She came in, said "Hi" and took a 5 second fart. Didnt blush nothing. Asked us where she should start. After one and a half hour, she said she is exhausted now and will go home. In that time, she had vacuum cleaned the floor in the ground floor (we had to do it again, after she was done) and mobbed the stairs.

Who Am I?

I'm a 30-something PR exec from New York City (by way of Kentucky!) whose world has been rocked by moving to Hong Kong (China!) and becoming a housewife.
I live with my 2 VBs (hubby + dog), crazy allergies, an intense fear of flying (not something I recommend when you move across the globe) and a constant hankering for a good NYC bagel and slice.
